Canada quietly toils away at Rugby World Cup
One of the star French players, Morgan Parra, drives an Audi convertible the entire Canadian team could probably afford together, provided someone re-mortgaged their parents’ home.
Money aside — and it’s a considerable amount of cash to try and overlook — the French players enjoy immense national fame and the adoration of citizens ranging from supermodels to 12-year-old boys desperate for autographs.
Team Canada, meanwhile, is thrilled to have a handful of players actually paid to play the game, even if the salaries most Canadians earn from professional rugby would have the New Democrats campaigning for a higher minimum wage.
